says they will be cheaper than ever,
In fact it is remai kable what fne suit
of clothing can be bought for SO little
money. Boys suits fine enough for .
Prince to wear can be bought for IS;
wards, and not of the shoddy order
either.
Other 6ner suits OF cheviot and blue
flannel cost but from tl2 to $l6. Re.
merkably fife spring over coats ARE
from $l6 to $18, But It is the large and
varied assortment of goods display cd
upon Mr.. Diefendorfs long range of

Prison life in Siberia is OF many varie-
ties, according to the offense Of different
individuals and the sentences which have
been decreed in their cases. The lowest
sentence is to simple Punishment for three
years, and the highest to hard labor for
life. The simple exile without imprison-
ment is appointed to live in q certain
town, district or province, and must re-
port 10 the police Mt stated intervals. He
may engage in certain specified occupa-
tons, or rather in any occupation which
is not on a prohibited list; for example, he
may teach music or painting, but he may
not teach languages, as they afford the OPP
p%ortunity for propagating revolutionary
ideas, He may become merchant, farmer,
mechanic, contractor or anything else OF
that sort, and IL not infrequently happens
that prison exiles enjoy a degree Of pros
perity in their new homes that they did
not have in European Russia. Exiles and
their sons have become millionaires in
Siberia; a former Vanderbilt Of lrkootsk,
the capital Of Eastern Siberia, was the
son OF an exile serf, his enormous fortune
having been gained in the overland tea
trade.
Many exiles become so attached 10 81
IBERIA that they remain there after their
term of Punishment Ia ended. but IL should
be understood that their cases are the ex-
ceptions rather than the rule. The wife
and immature children Of an exile may
follow or accompany him at the expense Of
the government, but cannot rvturn to
Europe until his term Of service has ex-
pired. The object Of exile is to furnish q
population to this sparsely inhabited re-
gion, and IL goes without saying that q
family man is much more likely to be q
good citizen when his wife and children
are with him than when they are thou
sands Of miles away. The name Of "pris-
oner" or exile Is never applied 10 the
banished individuals; in the language Of
the people they are called ''~unfortunates,"
and In official documents they are termed
Involuntary emigrants. Thomas w.
Knox.

Thieves In the British Museum.

Something ought to be done to guard
against the consequences Of the sudden
collapse of the electric light at the British
museum reading room. An accident Of
this kind was threatened two or three
weeks q and last week IL came Of in
earnest. The room was plunged in dark
ness for some minutes, and In the confus-
ION which followed there would have been
10 difficulty in any OF the two or three
hundred readers present clipping with
what books or other portable property
they could lay their hands on. This is
not an imaginary danger. II is well
known that some OF the readers mt the
British museum go there in pursuit OF
ether things besides knowledge. An at
tsndant there once told me that many OF
them would steal anything that could be
carried nway. II has been found useless
for this reason To provide sonp in the lava
tories, and the nail brushes have TO be
chained up. Even the rollers upon which
the towels hang have been stolen.-Lon-

Frank Pierce was rather wild when he
SR1s q student at Bowdoin college. One OF
- pranks occurred when Lafayette, who
Was everywhere hailed with joy, was WIS.,
11ag the New England states. The re-
newned patriot had got rs far east as
Hartsmouth, when IL became doubtful IL
- would proceed further. II had, how
sver, been reported that he would pass
through Brunswick, and so il was pro-
posed by Pierce to give Lafayette a recep-
ton. Accordingly the students hired car
ffages, secured q cannon and went mt the
proper time out on the Brunswick road TO
meet the general and his stan.
About y O'Clock in the evening there was
sen coming up the road the procession OF
stndents all ablaze. By . ~preconcerted
arrangement it wa announced at the mo-
Dent through all the town that Lafayette
was near. The people rushed out Of their
houses, the ladies waved their handker-
chiefs and cheer rose upon cheer. The
1eneral bowed in acknowledgment, and
Tally gos down from his carriage and
enndescended 70 kiss several VI the fair
ypung ladies. That nan was not Gen.
lafayette, but John Cleveland, . student,
wAo had personated the character to per-
fscfion. The whole affair wound up with
D supper, a good joke, and 20 the people OF
Brunswick never saw the real hero.-Ben:

How Seal Meat 10 Cooked.

Seal meat as cooked by the natives is of
o dirty brick red tint, owing TO the fact
that when killed the seal is simply
skinned, the blood remaining In the car
cass, acting as q coloring matter 10 the
meat. To unaccustomed stomachs seal
meat is u~npalatable, its taste resembling
fish more than flesh, while the oily odor is
Of course prevalent; but II when newly
caught a seal Ia bled and the flesh allowed
TO soak for a few hours, the meat, either
fried or baked, becomes palatable. When
frozen there is scarcely any flavor percep-
tible in the meat.
One 0f the sights that a warm spring in
the month Of May affords 10 the observer,
is the number Of seals that cover the ice.
Young pups, scarcely a month old, lie In
proximity 10 their dams, sometimes wan
dering away from their air holes and ut
tering plaintive cries like the bleat OF q
lamb. At this season Of the year the pups
can be taken with the hand, and the sled
dogs make excursions upon the ice for
the purpose Of catching these helpless
little animals, which are scarcely larger
than a young lamb.-San Francisco

Telling . "B'ar Story"
No quieter or more gentlemanly person
did | ever meet than Davy Crockett.
He came slowly lounging into the ven
cradle Office Of The National Intelligencer
one severe winter afternoon, when and
where | was industriously warming my
little boy body all round the small, square
stove.
There was a vacant chair near me. He
took 1t with solemn deliberation. Then
over the fiat stovepipe he extended his big,
rough hands.
"Cold," he said. Nothing more for a
long while.
Hooked up at him-looked intently, for
this was an uncommon conner. A large
form-to my boyish idea gigantic-a great,
strange head, down either side OF which,
from q middle parting, fell long black
hair. Something savage about him, yet q
most gentle savage, as IL he could fondle q
baby, pet a puss and rel cry very heart
lily, being moved by proper circumstance.
Ny father, present Of course, for he
~''belonged 70 the Office observing my
amazement, found opportunity to whisper
In my ear; David Crockett"
I knew a few things about the famous
man; knew that his life had been a ro-
nance surprising the imaginings Of any
poet or novelist; knew-and what so sur
prising as this-that he was o a MEM
Der of congress. Indeed, I had heard read
stories" with which he frequently amused,
convulsed and convinced the ''house."
l saw David Crockett.
Presently l felt David Crockett. His
big right hand, gliding away from the hot
stoveplate, chose to rest itself lovingly
among the curls Of my hair.
"You never met q barr" remarked
Davy; Sin course you neveri"
! acknowledged my total unacquaint-
ance.

"Don't know. Better hear about EN-

WA charmed with the anticipation.
He would have begun 1t Immediately, but
several members" senator's and others
that moment entered the Office.
Their business soon Owe they still lin
gered, for a whisper had stolen among
them, and more chairs were brought up
to the fire, and an expectant circle unex-
pectedly resulted.
81 was going to tell this lad a bar
story" resumed Davy, when every voice
interrupted him with:
'Tell i'll tell iti We all wish to
hear itf'
He complied. Listening, that after
noon, proved my chief enjoyment Of life
to date. Listening seemed to prove q
similar sensation to every person Of the
group. II was a grand excitement just TO
listen. Whatever was related we saw.
We lived along the remarkable incidents
from word to word. Who Of mortals, save
David Crockett, could display snch vivid
power-could SO WELD thunder and light

Comical situations were introduced. We
were eager, we were alarmed, we were

A Modern Inquisition.

I was under the impression that the
peine forte ct dure system of inquisition
was obsolete In England; but, TO judge
from the proceedings consequent on an
attempted burglary at the Manse house,
6hipton, Oxfordshire, not long ago, l was
wrong. Mr.. Parrot, IL seems, heard a
ncise In his house one morning, and threw
m his bedroom window. He then saw a
burglar escaping through the dining room
window. Having q gun, he challenged
him, but the man only ran the faster,
until he stumbled and fell on the lawn.
Mr.. PARROT fired, seriously wounding the
runaway, who was then shut up in the
sable till a policeman arrived two hours
lnfer. Removed 10 the Radcliffe infirm-
ary at oxford. the man '~'obstinately
refused his name or address, but, ac-
oording to the reports in the papers, the
doctor was equal 10 the occasion, and APP
piled the ~galyanic battery TO the wounded
